The Terrace House was really a unique place to stay -- steps from the hub bub of the village but high enough above to create a relaxing retreat in an historic, older and restored cottage. The traditional Turkish breakfast was fantastic and only equaled by the stunning view. Wonderful host and hostess.

The Harem room in Clockmaker's Cottage is comfortable and nicely furnished.There are lovely views of the village and hills from the windows. The bed is comfortable, with high quality sheets. The room definitely has character. There is a small landing outside the room with a sofa and kettle for tea/coffee - it's a useful place to sit, as the room itself is quite small, although the landing is rather dark and narrow. The bath in the bathroom is lovely for a hot soak, although a proper shower would be more practical if you are staying for a few days. The sink is tiny. Breakfast was enjoyable but not as varied or extensive as at some other similar places. The staff were lovely and very helpful. Overall this is a good place to stay. The Harem room is ok for 2 people, but probably better to book one of the cottages if you need more space.

Excellent place, perfect for a family. We had a lovely time at the House of Fig.

Restored mountain cabin like property. We stayed at clockmaker's house. Has a very cozy feel. Comfortable but little dusty. Small space. Top floor has a partitioned bedroom and bathroom which has a bathtub/ no shower stand. Their breakfast is excellent and has a great view. Quaint location and property. Driving your own car on the uneven cobblestoned road uphill through the busy narrow streets of the market can be challenging. Once you park your car, you can explore the market and the area on foot. Convenient location. Most people visit Sirince for a day trip (25 mins drive from Selcuk). The village of Sirince is a quaint place in the mornings and gets very chaotic later during the day. Omar is very hospitable.

Although we stayed only one night, we fell in love with this charming old stone house with one of a kind cosy and greenish terrace overlooking one of churches and typical facades of Sirince. It was not just staying but a time traveling, since the house is so beautifully decorated, filled in with the objects from the past, but at the same time having all the comfort for a family with 2 toddlers. The host Omer and his helpers were very helpful and kind at all the time. We definitely will come back to stay longer and enjoy peaceful moments in such a natural, simple, but full of history place.

Was the most amazing place! A small village that offered so much. From excellent hospitality to great wine and food. If you want a great romantic getaway this is the place. T of history too. The hotel was more than I expected and the food served was delicious. I will return someday again. Thank you for making our stay so remarkable!

The hotel is very nice and the hosts are very friendly and helpful. We felt like we were at home during our stay there. However, at the day of our arrival they've told us that we can choose between two rooms and we chose the bigger one. Unfortunately, they haven't informed us that we had to pay an additional amount for the upgrade. We were notified about it at the day of our departure. If the upgrade is not free, the hotel has to inform the guests in advance so that they can make their minds, considering the cost-benefit analysis; otherwise the usual assumption is that the hotel upgrades you for free. At many hotels I've stayed, they've offered me free upgrades. It was the first time I've encountered such an awkward situation. I dont know, maybe it is normal for small hotels in that village...

Charlotte and Omer have loads of local knowledge which means that even on our 4 th stay we saw new places. Our children ask repeatedly to go back. The village is a secret haven from our busy lives. Grapevine house is stunning with the most amazing garden full of local plants and a separate room which we used as an adult retreat. Thank you Charlotte and Omer

Couldn't have been better. Avoid the concrete generic hotels and stay here!

We stayed here in September at the very end of our trip to Europe. I wanted somewhere special to stay for our first night in Turkey and chose Sirince as our base to explore Ephesus from.I was so happy that I did as it was magical. All of our interractions with our hosts Omer and Charlotte (both beforehand and during our stay) were wonderful. They were very knowledgeable and helpful and obliging. We stayed at Grapevine House which had a lovely fruit filled garden with amazing views over the lovely hilltop town of Sirince. The rooms were absolutely beautiful, the linen high quality and the beds very comfortable. On our first night we sat on the terrace of the restaurant that Omer and Charlotte run and watched the sunset over the valley while the muezzin called the faithful to prayer. It was an incredible moment. The dinners and breakfast were great. All in all we could not have been happier with our stay. It was fabulous and we would return again and again...

Everything about our stay was delightful. The food was excellent (both dinner and breakfast), the cottage was cozy and clean (we stayed in Fig), and Omer helped us to plan out our sightseeing itineraries for each day. There were so many little things that made the stay wonderful--from the regional information in the cottage to the washing machine that we could use as needed.

The place is not easy to find - a few road signs here and there would certainly have helped. Even if you do know the road, it's a tricky one straight through narrow alleys and tight curves. The hosts were very helpful and friendly though, assisting with luggage, offering a cold drink, providing guidance and so on. We booked Grapevine but for some unexplained reason, we were put up in Olive instead. The bedrooms were decent and charming, while the bed in the smaller second bedroom is kid-size. The bathroom ok, although the shower drain is a bit clogged. The living room is not optimal if you're claustrophobic. Dinner on the panoramic terrace is recommended, but keep in mind that the wine offered will be added to your bill as will the orange juice at breakfast (perhaps we were naive here). All in all, probably one of the better places in Sirince to stay at.

My fiancé and I had been traveling all over turkey, from major cities to little costal towns and our stay here was one of the great highlights of the trip. Visiting the hilltop town of Sirince is a unique experience in itself. Staying at the Terrace Houses was the perfect way to enjoy this quiet village and acted as great home base to explore Ephesus and the surrounding areas. Everything about our stay at the Terrace Houses was perfection; location, décor, views, friendly + knowledgeable owner and overall atmosphere. I have nothing but positive things to say about this hotel.
